Abstract

Provided are a chopsticks handling game device capable of supporting not only the pinching of objects of various sizes but also a stabbing and cutting operation using the chopstick tips and a gaming method using the same. The chopsticks handling game device of the present invention includes a combination of a pair of chopsticks and a plurality of rings having different outside diameters, wherein the plurality of rings can be concentrically arranged in accordance with the size of the outside diameter. The gaming method of the present invention comprises lifting rings by pinching the outer circumferential sides of concentrically arranged rings with the tips of a pair of chopsticks sequentially from the outermost ring to the innermost ring and concentrically rearranging the rings in an adjacent position.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A gaming method for the use of (a chopsticks handling game device comprising: a pair of chopsticks; and a plurality of rings having different outside diameters, each of the plurality of rings having two opposing side surfaces either of which can be in contact with a planar surface, wherein the plurality of rings can be concentrically arranged in accordance with the size of the outside diameter thereof, the gaming method comprising a first method and a second method, wherein
 the first method comprises steps of:
 arranging the plurality of rings concentrically on a planar surface; 
 lifting the concentrically arranged plurality of rings sequentially from the outermost ring to the innermost ring by pinching an outer circumferential side of a ring with tips of the pair of chopsticks; and 
 rearranging the plurality of rings concentrically in an adjacent position; and 
 
 the second method comprises steps of:
 arranging the plurality of rings concentrically on a planar surface; 
 lifting the concentrically arranged plurality of rings sequentially from the innermost ring to the outermost ring by Dressing and holding an inner circumferential side of a ring with tips of the pair of chopsticks; and 
 rearranging the plurality of rings concentrically in an adjacent position. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The gaming method according to  claim 1 , further comprising a third method wherein the third method comprises steps of:
 arranging the plurality of rings concentrically on a planar surface; 
 lifting the concentrically arranged plurality of rings sequentially from the outermost ring to the innermost ring or from the innermost ring to the outermost ring by pinching a radial thickness portion of a ring with tips of the pair of chopsticks; and 
 rearranging the plurality of rings concentrically in an adjacent position. 
 
     
     
       3. The gaming method according to  claim 2 , wherein the tips of the pair of chopsticks are covered with an elastic material. 
     
     
       4. The gaming method according to  claim 2 , wherein outer peripheral surfaces and inner peripheral surfaces of the rings are processed to have rough surfaces. 
     
     
       5. The gaming method according to  claim 2 , wherein one of the two opposing side surfaces of each of the plurality of rings colored different from a color of the other of the two opposing side surfaces of each of the plurality of rings. 
     
     
       6. The gaming method according to  claim 1 , wherein the tips of the pair of chopsticks are covered with an elastic material. 
     
     
       7. The gaming method according to  claim 1 , wherein outer peripheral surfaces and inner peripheral surfaces of the rings are processed to have rough surfaces. 
     
     
       8. The gaming method according to  claim 1 , wherein one of the two opposing side surfaces of each of the plurality of rings colored different from a color of the other of the two opposing side surfaces of each of the plurality of rings.
